Gumbel hatred for ‘pig’ gun owners not uncommon for establishment sports media
"There are a few things I hate more than the NRA,” Gumbel admitted. “I mean truly.”
What those “few things” are remained unstated. ISIL? Communism? Nazism? Murderers? Child molesters? For some reason I’m also conjuring up Arlo Guthrie’s list of Group W bench offenders: “Mother-rapers . . . father-stabbers . . . father-rapers!” [More]My latest JPFO Alert notes if "progressive" sports media monopoly of violence cultists want to be true to their roots, they ought to be calling us "Schwein!"
The Best Kept Secret
Evidently, the new marketing strategy used by the gun industry is to not let anyone know what they're selling. Or something...
Beats me, but VPC figured it out, and you know how much smarter they are than everybody else.
Virginia Lobby Day highlighted effective gun rights activism
On Monday, I made it to the General Assembly building at around 10 a.m. The weather was as perfect as one could hope for this time of year, sunny and warming into the 50s. VCDL activist teams had already been busy meeting with legislators since 8:30, and the rally with speakers was scheduled to start at 11. In contrast to the hysterical reaction we saw recently in Washington State, many of the activists were armed, and those with concealed carry permits could even open carry inside the building as a matter of course and without causing a massive freak-out. [More]Today's Gun Rights Examiner report shares experiences and impressions from my trip to Virginia. It also includes an embedded video of my speech and a link to Emily Miller's, as well as several photos of the pre-event dinner and Lobby Day itself.
Kleck Responds
I'm sure everyone paying attention has noticed antis have resurrected their attacks on DGUs by trying to discredit the research.
The guy behind that research is having none of it.

Not everyone objects to the term. [More]
As long as the prudes (and what else are prohibitionists?) are going to treat us as one and the same, why not find common interests? Again, as with the weed people or Pink Pistols, tolerance doesn't require you to personally accept or approve of the way others chose their pursuit of happiness, just that you don't try to impose your way on peaceable human beings through force or fraud.
We each have one life to live, and a guarantee is we'll all experience our share of pain, either self-created or imposed. It doesn't make moral sense adding to the portion of another -- unless they allow you no choice but a defensive response.
Besides, even after checking out their "particular set of skills" (just so I could do my due diligence and save you the arduous task of detailed research, you understand) I find these ladies a lot more wholesome than the repressed control freaks who base their entire existence on bending others to their will. Talk about obscene.

Republican Betrayal
A Slow Fist Coming
We can see it approaching. [More]
Just like last time.
It's the plans to keep it from striking again that have yet to be fleshed out.

Dial 911 and умереть
FCC weighs plan to use Russian satellite network for 911 system [More]Здравствуйте, чем я могу помочь?*
Followed by:
Извините, я вас плохо слышу. Повторите, пожалуйста.*
*
On the plus side, this ought to come in pretty darn handy when we catch the antis purposely omitting Russia from "gun homicide" statistics by acting like it's not part of the "developed world."

Compromise
Mr. Hardy gives us the detailed analysis. [More]
And then there's the CliffsNotes version... but do read the first link.

Courting Trouble
Gun maker Remington has moved a lawsuit by families of those shot in the Sandy Hook school massacre from state to federal court, where at least one expert says it has less chance of succeeding. [More]It shouldn't have any chance anywhere. Think of what it would mean. The first judge should have thrown it out and imposed frivolous lawsuit fines.

Fruit Hanging So Low It Practically Puts Itself in the Basket
We want to share with you examples of the continued vigilance of TSA officers in protecting our nation’s transportation systems... [More]I wonder how useful they'd be if someone intent on not waiting for his gun to be "discovered" showed up?
And why do I keep coming back to "The High and the Mighty"?

So Where Are They?
Tell you what, Nicholas Kristof:
You and Kai get these guys to do this, and then we can talk.
The answer will still be "No," but since you're pushing this nonsense, I might as well let you do the work to prove it to yourself what a dumb idea this is. Not that I think for a moment you're interested in being anything other than a Fourth Estate Fifth Columnist.

Is the Sky at Least Sagging a Bit?
You may hear other gun groups squawking about the sky falling and needing your money to stop it from happening. DO NOT BE FOOLED, these anti-gun bills WILL NOT be passing. Instead we encourage you to save that money to spend on fun stuff, like ammunition, training or a NFA tax stamp for the suppressors that will soon be legal in Iowa! [More]I'm all for not diverting money to phony appeals. That said, I'd be interested in hearing what these folks have to say. I don't know that there's ever a time where we've got things so under control we no longer need to stay on high alert, and if we've entered a period where the likelihood of threat success is reduced, it would seem the best time to do some reclamation work.
That's not to say ignore "fun stuff," because "pursuit of happiness" is a big part of "the blessings of Liberty," although I personally am not inclined to register my property and pay for the intrusion to boot.
Different individuals and groups have different tactics. It's our job to evaluate them and decide which ones work for us. In order to do that, we need to know about them.
There's an App for That
And wouldn't it be only "common sense" to tie it in to a database of all registered gun owners? You know, as "a good first step"...? [More]
